.Just bolted everything up

Not perfectly even but fully coated to prevent any rust, will eventually just tape them off & do a little wetsanding.
I really just have Amazon Prime for the myriad of shipping boxes.
SoCal has been looking like "This Is The End" since the Sand Wildfire is raging nearby but I still washed the Z & snapped a pic before the gym:

Progress has been slow, but I finished paying off my 36-month loan earlier this month & now officially own my Z outright

Man I said it before. This is how the car should be setup. So simple and clean man!. I am not sure if I should mount the Oil cooler(arc style) or the 25row on the nismo.
Did you sell the Enkeis?
Again nice job bud

Iirc I got the idea for the ARC-style cooler setup from someone who originally went through Dan @ Slammered years ago for his track Z (small world). I will always take full advantage of a wide-open front fascia
, my vote is for it over the 25-row.My Z is my dd so the RPF1's unfortunately got beat up over time, I sold the best pair back to the original owner who is a friend of mine (Matt (nextcore)), who wants to make a coffee table out of them

Looking at your pic, reminded me of my car's latest battle wound almost identical to yours but on the rear....
Fortunately though, this time it's just removable rubber from rubbing against a new tire for my Volv that I've got sitting next to the Z in the garage!
